Billy Hamilton had one of baseball's most distinguished careers. He holds a host of records, some quirky like 7 steals in one game and both a leadoff and walkoff homerun in the same game. But most of his accomplishments are just down right amazing. He set the all time single season record with 198 runs scored, he scored one or more runs in 24 straight games, he ended his career with a .344 average. I love the old baseball cards of his era and tried to capture that feel in this painting.
